T-Rex Mudhoney Danish Distortion

The Mudhoney distortion was our first shot at making a great, all-round distortion box. That´s how most owners have described it - it just plain works for a lot of different music styles and they haven´t found a similar sound in many other pedals. In fact, there´s  a story about a player that bought and sold six Mudhoney´s, before realizing that the pedals he replaced it with weren´t doing it for him, so he got the seventh one – and kept it.

The slightly aggressive and punchy sounding midrange paired up with a gain mode switch gives you great, natural rock grit – but with the ability to be almost fuzz-like on high gain settings. Conversely, on low gain settings, the sound is really cool for a nastier, growlier rhythm sound.

Still dressed in mellow-yellow, still sounding every bit as good as the old “yellow one”, we are proud to make the Mudhoney sound available to players again.

True bypass

Reproduction of the original Mudhoney circuit

Selected parts match or surpass the old ones in quality/sound

CONTROLS

Gain: Adjusts the level of distortion in conjunction with the mode switch

Tone: Adjusts the high/treble frequencies

Level: Controls the output level. Settings above 12 o´clock will boost the level relative to the bypassed signal. At maximum, the output level is boosted appr. 15dB
